Hi blog readers,
Well, what can I say after a title like that! Me and all my comrades in joggers are being dictated to, not by nagging sister anymore, but by her egotistical, megalomaniac, sadistically possessed cross trainer!
'Why do you say that?' I can feel you all asking, well sit back and listen to this horror storey.
Today happy neighbour had to go to work, which of course means that I don't have a passenger, so?..... stick with me guys...., I'm on my bike!. But today I have to go shopping so I wanted to use my bike there instead, (its shorter distance) but for some unknown overpowering reason I was heading for my shed to get out my bike. I was arguing with myself (again, I know, but its true) 'Take the car old girl, you know you want to' And I did want to take the car, but this unknown force kept me going till I was outside my house with my helmet and bike clips in place and that darn bike by my side (How people ride for fun is beyond me).
So be it, its healthier right? Anyway I arrived at nagging sisters house, we are working the beauty and beast today, and she duly lets me in, I did hear some vague noise coming from nagging sisters mouth about dots and harder, but you know how it is, I have learned to switch off when she starts.
As nagging sister had done her time on the beast Vic.2 was next to ride. She, not nagging sister, programmed number 7, the program we have had since we started on the beast, herself. Then Vic.2 spoke to me, 'Its 'upped' the levels already, without me having to push the buttons' Said a horrified vic.2 'But its put it on two extra levels and not one, for the first part'
Its as if the beast has developed a personalty of its own, its re adjusting the programs all by itself, it is working us harder without the use of nagging sister! Dare vic.2 push the plus button to a up a next level, or will she leave it. She did the sensible thing, she left it until that is the very last set of 'dots' and she upped her level to 10!.
Vic.2 got off looking exhausted clutching the glass of iced water I gave her as if her life depended on it. Now it is my turn. I programmed in the no.7 program, I programmed in how many minutes and I programmed in my age! But when I pushed the start button the beast took over again! more dots on each section, meaning harder levels. How has that happened? I tentatively start working the beast, how long before its starts to grow tentacles and keep us strapped up on it till we each give it 500 calories a piece!
Well the beast didn't get 500 from me today, I did smash my p.b again whoo hoo but right now I cant remember what it was, it was a scary ride, I was looking forward to stepping off the beast.
Of course I did the wobble machine, I did that before the beast, and as nagging sisters 50th trillion badminton class was due she kicked us out pretty rapid, not really enough time to recover from riding the beast before I had to ride my bike back home!
I must have burnt up 500 calories now surely, maybe I wont avoid the choccie biscuits when then come calling for me.
